Why was there controversy over the song ‘Sarke Chunar’?
There was a controversy going on for the last several weeks regarding the song ‘Sarke Chunar Teri Sarke’ from the film ‘KD: The Devil’. The lyrics of the song and some of its scenes were considered objectionable. The complainants alleged that this song is against the dignity and respect of women.
